The Simplest & Fastest Way To DEEP CLEAN a Car Engine Bay!

Excellent video. Easy to follow and to the point, great job.

)

why the alternator not covered before water spraying the bay, is it ok to do that?

Did the battery make it through the cleaning without damage?

What about the alternator?

Can its uses for Door jambs n petrol lid caps

This is a good video but this engine bay has it covering sensitive components of the engine like electrical wiring and devices such as the sparkplugs. If you want good advice to avoid shorting out stuff and rust I would watch Chrisfix's video on engine bay cleaning, it's a lot more detailed, it helps people who don't have engine covers so they don't damage their engine.

Is it safe to get water inside the hood? I've always been worried about that. Does the water drain out? I guess I'll just nervous about building rust.

Edit.. I mean through the holes on the underside of the hood.

Yeah on the fence with this one. You really need to consider the make and age of car. Not knowing your jet bar pressurised water and age don't mix. Cars engine bays are designed to get you back to the dealer, covered up and a mystery. Old school isn't designed for a 21st century clean

I've been having rat problems and was told to wash and decrease my engine get get their scent away then apply the stuff that makes them avoid it. Had to see how much you can hose an engine

What about covering the alternator??

I'd be most worried about the alternator... battery is sealed... cleaning the terminals is a good thing.

Great video! But, no nitrile gloves?? Using any harsh cleaning chemicals without hand protection can be a real problem for many folks. That’s why almost all detailing instructional videos are gloved up. They also offer a small degree of protection against cuts and scrapes. Can’t be too careful!😄

How long does VRP last on engine plastics?

On the VRP, since it is water-based, could you dilute it with a little water and put it in a spray bottle for faster coverage?

Do the compound/polish video soon please, looking for some knowledge, thanks again guys.

Excellent tutorial! Thanks for the advice and tips. Looks great! Job well done!

The only thing different I would have done was put a plastic bag over the alternator

You miss some spots.
Great video

Excellent video and it’s finally spring. This weekend I am washing the bay lol

Love it chemical Guy is my favorite product

Wouldn’t it be more beneficial to cover the alternator with a plastic bag

Who’s that peeking out my window? POW, nobody now 🤣🤣🤣

I have a 2017 Ford Fusion with a 2.5 liter engine. Does the concentrate version of the degreaser or the original degreaser work for my particular engine type?

Can you use silk&shine and undercarriage product on the engine?

I usually take the “Beaty cover” off and wash it off the motor.

No issue with possible damage to sensors or electronics ?

If you have an aftermarket intake make sure u cover it in a plastic bag

Is there a time period to wait before starting a vehicle after the engine has been washed?

Great Video

So I need to buy a pressure washer to use my cleaner to clean the engine 🙁

I have a oil leak that I'm going to get fixed. Would the orange degreaser work on the extra dirty oil on the bottom of the engine? I don't want to use water on the engine. There are wires and sensors that are everywhere. My cousin gave me his father's Camry. It's a 2000 Camry LE 4 cylinder. Or do I need something much more heavier to degrease the bottom of the engine. Please reply thanks much.

Saw a guy hose down a vw engine one time and he ended up having to take it to the shop because it wouldn't start

Can All Clean be used as well as your engine degreaser?

Instead of vrp black on black was not good choice more even coverage ?

The battery is one one the last things that need covering

What are all the things you need to cover some cars doesn't have engine cover and computer box In engine bay n no cover also some people say don't use power wash

How long do you let it sit before you wash it

If you have an EV you never have to worry about this nonsense.

Awesome bro !!

As an experienced mechanic you cannot hurt the battery by washing it. If anything it's a good thing to wash off any residual acid and dirt that may build up on it. I have no problem with washing down an engine bay. I don't even cover the ignition system or the alternator. I will even clean them but will not put heavy pressure on those two items. Never had a problem. Ignitions, alternators, and computers I just lightly glance over with the pressure washer.

Can’t wait to do mine
